MoreMy funny valentine [ lyric video ]
My funny valentine,
Sweet, comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.

Bittersweet memories by Bullet For My Valentine [ music video + lyrics ]
🎼 You turn me off at the push of a button – And you pretend that I don’t mean nothing – I’m not a saint; that’s easy to tell – But guess what, honey? You ain’t no angel – You like to scream; use words as a weapon – Well, go ahead take your best shot, woman – I wanna leave you – it’s easy to see;
But guess what, honey? It’s not that easy. 🎵
You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.
Dr. Seuss
